My father was an Anglican priest. When I was 8, in school we learned about the Norse gods. I worried for a long time about what would happen to my father if he had made the wrong choice. I never confronted him with the problem.
I also calculated how old I would be in 2000 and wondered if I'd live long enough to experience it.
Spent the Millenium with a family who had just buried their disabled 6 yr. old son. Not exactly what I had imagined.

That life is just a fairy tale.....
I usually read fairy tale books when I was a little child... I love prince and princess, fairies, castles, fairy god mothers, and all those stuffs... They're really amazing right?
I enjoyed those parts that the princess meet her prince... They are so lovable to imagine...
My heart will beat so fast when the witches will come and then will try to ruin every good things..
Then I will have feeling of relief when I the prince fights the witch and then another rescue will come...
Of course.. you can't take away the fairy god mothers who are always to the rescue...
Well..
When I was a child, I dreamed to be a princess and find a prince that will always rescue me everytime I will need him... Then we will be in love and then we will live happily ever after....
REALITY....
LIFE IS REALLY NOT A FAIRY TALE....
I realized that when I became adult...
Already bearing responsibilities...
It is not like that.... that when you marry your true-to-life prince, you will always live happily ever after..
Life is not that easy... that when you are in the midst of storm.. you can just call a fairy godmother to twist the spell that was made by the witch...
Life is complicated and we have to be strong to face any problems that comes our way... Because many times you need to face your own battle... You and your prince must take everything in your shoulder...

I used to think that I was the only real person, and that there were people watching me all the time, a bit like the truman show, but I was only four or five. This belief was compunded by adults who seemed to know what I was doing even if I was alone, forexample my grandad knowingthat i hadn't washed my hands after being to the toilet.

As a child I thought I was going to marry my first girlfriend (8 years old) and live happily ever after. I didn't realise I was going to have to troll through 30 of the buggers before I found one I really got on with. Wish I could have skipped a few of them I can tell you

Hey, are u in the States?
Good mornin?
What a fantastic question - I can always tell because a funny sound comes out of my mouth like I got heartburn or somethin.
What was the "dribble" underneath? And u believed that (whistle like ur sayin hellooooo".
I found out the REAL TRUTH when I got older (I'm not dead yet!) and that is that in life you have to be YOU, who you are and not what you think will please other people. I think I finally got the balance right. But don't ask me what it is!!! Or whether it was too late. I just wish I'd had a dad like me. Work that one out!?
I only said "dribble" cos I got that quoted at me. I thought she was so sweet for sayin it, though!

I used to think that every single person in life had a soulmate, and that if you were especially beautiufl and clever and kind you'd meet your soulmate, maryr him and live happily ever after. Now, however, i understand that there is nothing such as soulmates, that all, well, okay, most men are just meat-less brainless gits and that the onyl real love in life is love of chocolate!!! :D

Told by those older than me that Santa Claus was real, god was real.
That i needed to fit in a mould to be 'accepted'.
Marriage was important and forever.
Once loved never lost etc.
Yeah what a fool i was to believe in all that.
I also thought that the body was just a vehicle for the brain.
I think your misconceptions were accurate though oops did i get that wrong also!

For me it was freedom, the right to live free, that we were people and naturally as people we were allowed to live work and be what we wanted to be.
Not true with all the laws, rules , and force used by all countries/governments we are forced to live within their financial needs, pawns of money whose rights to anything is controlled by such countries/governments.
They place us in classes and levels of value and worth by who or what you are. Born of privilege well your life will be full (materialistically) born into a family of politicians and the good old boy network your chances of a fabulous life are written pretty much in stone.
Born into the "lower class" you no matter what.... chance a life of pain, drugs, violence, strive and prison no chance of living a free life due to who you were born.

That people are so pure at heart as the protagonists in Hollywood films.
How did I find out about the truth? As usually... The hard way!

My Mom told me all about sex and stuff but told me it was something that adults do(fair enough I can see her thinking..) however, being young I got it all a bit bum about face and when a teenager round the corner got pregnant I apparently said
"well why was she up that late anyway?"
I'd thought that cos it was adult and you have sex in bed then you'd do it late-cos that's when adults go to bed. Late.
Learned the truth when Mom told me I'd got mixed up.
Knew for sure some years later ;-)
